My Wife Is a Superstar (Ning Tan)
Chapter 843
Chapter 843 A Difficult Search
When Ning Ran and Lu Jingyuan emerged from the hotel, they encountered a young man in a white suit in the lobby.
He was tall and good-looking but had a shifty look to his eyes.
Ning Ran recognized him immediately. At the press conference where the Rong family announced their strategic collaboration with Sunshine Corporation, the man was sitting right beside Ouyang Li.
Back then, Nan Chen had mentioned to Ning Ran that the man was none other than Rong Jilin, the second son of the Rong family.
Rong Jilin, too, spotted Ning Ran. After scrutinizing her in detail, he turned his attention to Lu Jingyuan.
Given that both ladies were beauties who would become the center of attention wherever they went, they were used to being ogled at by men.
Even then, the brazenness of Rong Jilin's gaze unsettled both of them.
What made it worse was that he came forward to block their way.
“You must be Ding Mi, the actress and Nan Chen's rumored girlfriend?” Rong Jilin spoke in a flirty tone, leaving a bad first impression on the ladies.
Despite knowing who he was, Ning Ran pretended not to. “We don't know you. Please step aside.”
“I'm Rong Jilin, Prosperity Entertainment's CEO. I'm here to discuss business with Mr. David. What are you doing here? Did Nan Chen send a woman to take care of something he couldn't? Is he trying to win the sole broadcasting rights for Nanshi Corporation by using a honey trap?”
Rong Jilin didn't bother mincing his words the moment he spoke.
“Shut up! If you dare spew such nonsense again, I'll make you regret it!”
Ning Ran was outraged by his words.
Truth be told, Ning Ran had met members of the Rong family before. The very first one was the beautiful songstress, Rong Rong. Subsequently, she met the elegant pianist, Rong Yi. All of them were extraordinary people whom she admired.
Despite being members of the same family, the difference in characters was staggering.
Rong Jilin sneered, “You're going to make me regret it? How do you plan on doing that? Nanshi Corporation has brazenly involved itself in plenty of illegal businesses from tax evasion to money laundering. And now, Nan Chen has even gotten his girlfriend to sell her—”
Slap!
Lu Jingyuan landed a slap on Rong Jilin's face before he could even finish.
The sudden turn of events stunned Ning Ran, who didn't expect the former to be one step ahead of her. She's a true friend indeed.
“How dare you hit me? You—”
Slap! Slap!
Lu Jingyuan repeated her actions with a vengeance.
All this while, Rong Jilin had grown used to being a spoilt rich heir. Little did he expect to be slapped that day.
Just as he prepared to strike back, two men who were watching the commotion suddenly stepped in front of Lu Jingyuan.
With towering figures and frosty looks in their eyes, these men were obviously not to be trifled with.
“Please don't cause any trouble,” one of them warned Rong Jilin.
“But she hit me first—”
“You were the one who started it with insults. Don't make any hasty moves, or we'll detain you at once,” the other threatened.
Just as Rong Jilin wanted to protest further, his secretary whispered, “Mr. Rong, please calm down, as we're in the capital. Your brother has instructed that you mind yourself and not cause any trouble.”
After letting out a snort, the disgruntled Rong Jilin stormed off to the elevator.
Once the two men who “protected” Lu Jingyuan saw that the threat had been neutralized, they went back to being “passersby.”
Thereafter, Ning Ran gave Lu Jingyuan a grateful look. “Thank you for standing up for me.”
“You're my friend. There's no way I'm going to allow you to be bullied here in the capital,” Lu Jingyuan declared proudly.
“Thank you. Now that the matter is settled, I'll be heading back to Flower City. I still have work to do there.”
“Do you have time to spare? Why don't you leave after a meal? I'll treat you to some local delicacies,” Lu Jingyuan suggested with a smile.
“I'm extremely grateful to you for arranging the meeting with David. I'm sorry I don't have time to eat, as I need to rush to the airport. I still have work to do tomorrow.”
“Come on, you can leave after that. There's something I would like to discuss with you. Don't worry. I guarantee that you'll be back in Flower City by tonight. It won't get in the way of your work,” Lu Jingyuan promised.
Although Ning Ran was anxious to get back, it would be rude to refuse Lu Jingyuan's invitation after the help she had rendered.
With that, Lu Jingyuan brought Ning Ran to a restaurant that had a traditional courtyard decorated with lanterns.
“They serve local specialties here and the food is delicious. Usually, one would need to make an advance reservation, but after begging my brother for help, he managed to get us a table,” Lu Jingyuan explained with a smile.
